Director Development

The focus of our Director Development offerings is to contribute to the development of better
directors, and ultimately, better boards.
The enhanced leadership and direction in turn delivered by these well-equipped boards will,
we believe, yield better business.

How do we define "better directors”?

The IoDSA Director Competency FrameworkTM (DCF) contains 20 competences that epitomize the
competent director. All our offerings
are aligned to the DCF and we are therefore continuously striving to deliver
relevant interventions – training, events, mentoring, assessment and
certification - that equip directors with the necessary knowledge and insights
required to fulfil their duties and to appreciate the importance of good governance.

What does the IoDSA offer?

Director Development and Events delivers a host of
interventions aimed at supporting the continual learning and development of
aspiring and experienced directors.

Who should attend?

If you’re are in a leadership role or involved in leading a business, then you need to know how
to do business. We believe that governance is simply good business practice and needs to be effused
throughout the business. Our programmes
are developed for different target audiences:

Individual Directors

Individuals supporting the role of Directors

Boards of Directors

Board Committee Members

Public Sector

SME and Family Owned Businesses

How can I benchmark my progress?

The Certified Director (Cert.Dir.) is a professional designation conferred by the Institute of Directors in Southern Africa (IoDSA). The designation is awarded to individuals who have successfully completed the training, online multiple choice questions (MCQs) and written assessment.

The Chartered Director (SA) certification
programme is a four phase assessment process aimed at recognising competent
directors against the competences contained in the Director Competency
Framework.
